The sculpture of an estrogen molecule on display outside the Academy's President's office was created by artist Mara Haseltine. The sculpture is scientifically accurate and depicts the structure of the estrogen molecule at the atomic level. Haseltine hopes the sculpture will help viewers develop a new understanding of science by allowing them to physically interact with a representation of a microscopic molecule. The Academy has also hired Douglas Braaten as the new Director and Executive Editor of the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences. He will oversee the expansion and increased exposure of the Annals scientific journal.

Adopt-a-Plant Project guidelinesOverviewThe purpose of this.docx
Adopt-a-Plant Project guidelines
Overview:
The purpose of this project is for you to choose a plant, conduct online research into the biology of the plant, and communicate what you have learned. You will be preparing an annotated bibliography on the plant you choose. The entire project is worth 50 points
Annotated Bibliography (50 points)
You will prepare an annotated bibliography with a list of the top 10 most interesting facts about your plant.
· Each fact should be paraphrased (i.e. written in your own words, no quotations allowed).
· Then tell me why this is interesting to you – make connections to your life or to currents issues in our world.
· Finally, give a full citation and tell me why you think this is a reliable, trustworthy source. Use this libguide to help you come up with reasons why your source is trustworthy.
· At least one of your sources should be from a peer-reviewed, science journal article.
Here is an example:
Fact 1: Taxol is a chemotherapy agent derived from the bark of the Pacific Yew Tree. The chemical itself is derived from a fungal endophtye within the bark. I thought this was very interesting, because the Pacific Yew tree is native to the state of Washington, and my aunt Jane received Taxol while undergoing chemotherapy for ovarian cancer. I also thought it was interesting because of the mutualistic relationship between the plant and the fungus.Citation: Plant natural products from cultured multipotent cells
Roberts, Susan; Kolewe, Martin. Nature Biotechnology28.11 (Nov 2010): 1175-6.
This is a reliable source because it is published in a peer-reviewed science journal article, written by two PhDs that are providing a review of the current literature on the topic
To complete the assignment, you should first choose a plant, gather articles discussing your plant, read the articles sufficiently enough to discuss the plant, and finally write the annotated bibliography. You are expected to produce original work, and any plagiarism will receive a zero. The paper should be double-spaced, and typed in 12 point font size, with normal margins. The instructions for how to properly cite your sources are at the end of this handout.
*** Reminder: The scientific name of a plant should always be typed in italics, with the first letter of the Genus capitalized. For ex.: Digitalis lanata. When you search for information on your plant online, make sure to use the scientific name, which will bring back a wider variety of results
The bibliography is worth 50 points and will be graded on:
1. Effort
• Quality of references
•Depth/breadth/quality of material covered
2. Following directions/ requirements
I will use the following rubric to grade your bibliography:
Research, Critical Reading and Documentation
Balanced, authoritative sources; correctly cited sources; effectively integrated outside sources. Most sources from science journals
10 pts
Effective sources, correctly cited, Could have a few more.

CELB20020 Library Workshop 26 Jan 2011
This document provides an overview of how to effectively conduct research by finding and citing credible information sources. It discusses plagiarism and how to avoid it by properly citing sources. The key steps in research are defined as: defining your topic, refining your search terms, determining appropriate sources like books, journals, databases and websites, searching those sources, and evaluating the information found. It emphasizes evaluating sources for credibility and cautions about relying solely on internet sources. Specific databases and the library catalog are demonstrated as good places to start the search process.
The Dynamic Earth Research Paper Assignment This is to be a resear.docx
The Dynamic Earth Research Paper Assignment
This is to be a research-based paper in which you explore a specific aspect of an Earth science topic in more detail than is covered in the class. You are to find out what the experts think about the topic and report on the rationale for their understanding, that is, upon what experimental and observational evidence and logic do they base their conclusions.
You can choose any topic of interest to you that is related to the Earth science topics that we covered in class. However make sure that it is specific enough that you can cover it well in the paper. This should not be a general overview paper. Some sample topics are listed at the end, but you are not limited to these topics.
Your thesis in the paper should be supported by facts obtained from research. A minimum of four sources must be used. They should include at least one book other than the textbook or other reference book (either in print or in electronic format from the library database) or an article from peer-reviewed academic journals. Web-based materials should come from credible sources. University-related and government agency websites generally have credible scientific information, while personal and business-related sites should be treated with healthy skepticism. Although you may not find books that directly addresses the issue about which you are writing, you may find one that addresses necessary background or general supporting information about your topic. Reference material (e.g. encyclopedias, dictionaries, your textbook) do not count toward your four references, although you are welcome to use them.
You should credit your sources whenever you quote from or paraphrase a source. Additionally, you should always cite your source for any statements made in the essay that are not general knowledge (because you presumably obtained them from one of your sources). For instance if you state that 98 percent of all the fish in the ocean are green, you will want to cite your source.
A bibliography page, or works cited page, should be located on a separate page immediately following the body of your essay. It should contain the list of works used listed alphabetically by last name of lead author. Although I will not be extremely picky about the formatting of the works cited page, I do expect all the information needed to locate each source, and I expect it to roughly follow
the standard formatting used in composition classes. Be sure to include the date of access for URL’s.
The paper should be 5-8 pages long, typewritten, double spaced, and written in a standard (and legible) font (12 point Times New Roman for example). It is to be submitted electronically via Isidore, where it will be checked by Turnitin.com. The paper is due by the end of the last day of class (12/9/2016).
Sample topics:
1. Select a recent natural disaster, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, flood, and
hurricanes, provide a detailed geological/hydrological.
Week 12 102
This document provides instructions for an assignment that is due on April 5th. Students are asked to gather between 7-10 total sources on their topic, including a minimum of 3 multimedia sources. The document then provides explanations of what a bibliography is, why citations and bibliographies are important for credibility, acknowledging intellectual property, and enabling further research. It provides examples of correct MLA citation formats and a sample bibliography page for the student to follow.
In need of a 3 page essay on how the.pdf
The document provides instructions for a 3-page essay on how the presence or absence of wolves affects river shapes. It outlines topics to discuss, such as community ecology, biodiversity, food webs, and keystone species. Students are asked to argue whether reintroducing wolves would be good or bad, discussing both sides. They must conclude by describing how ecology and biodiversity benefit humans and how humans impact the environment. Reliable sources from universities, government websites, and journals must be cited using APA format.
Evolution Writing AssignmentOne of the topics in the news is a.docx
Evolution Writing Assignment
One of the topics in the news is about whether creation science should be taught in schools along with evolution or that evolution should be taught as “just a theory”. We have touched on evolution in a number of chapters so far this spring and through some of your reading assignments and you should now understand what a scientific theory is and that it is not "just a guess". Evolution is often presented as a belief system that also relies on faith even though over 150 years of scientific research has shown that evolution is an extremely robust explanation of life. The fact that there is still so much misinformation about evolution indicates that the subject is not settled and may not be for quite a while.
There appears to be a gap in support for evolution within the United States. Based on an article published in Newsweek, 99.86% of Earth and Life Scientists supported evolution as the primary force explaining life on earth today versus only 40% of the general public [Larry Martz and Ann McDaniel, "Keeping God Out of Class (Washington and bureau reports)". A 2009 Pew Research poll showed that, 97% of scientists accepted that humans evolved in some fashion, while 31% of the general public thought humans have existed in their present form since the beginning of time (http://www.pewforum.org/2009/11/05/public-opinion-on-religion-and-science-in-the-united-states/). In another poll by Public Religion Research Institute (RNS Religion News Survey, September 14–18, 2011, N=1,013) 57% of respondents said that "Humans and other living things have evolved over time" came closest to their view, while 38% preferred "Humans and other living things have existed in their present form since creation." In the same poll, when people were asked "do scientists generally agree that humans evolved over time, are scientists divided, or do scientists generally disagree that humans evolved over time," 51% of respondents said that scientists agree, 26% said that scientists were divided, 15% said that scientists disagreed, and 9% said that they didn't know or refused to answer the question.
Based on the polls, there is a perception within the public that scientists are divided about evolution even though over 99% of Earth and life scientists support evolution as a fact. People accept gravitational theory, quantum theory, and cell theory as fact, but when it comes to this one area of biology, suddenly they question the idea and the scientists. As a citizen scientist, you need accurate information to make accurate conclusions. As Charles Darwin himself stated, “a fair result can be obtained only by fully stating and balancing the facts and arguments on both sides of each question.” With that in mind, here is your assignment.
Assignment: Your assignment will be to write a 700 word paper explaining the scientific basis of evolution and why people have trouble accepting evolution. This will be a 3 part paper that will include a paragraph th ...

The organism you choose was agaricus
Organism Profile
Assignment Instructions
:
You will write an organism profile based on literature researched about your chosen organism.
Research should come from scientific information on the internet and research articles at the APUS library. Your paper should include, but not be limited to, the following topics:
1.
Introduction/background information about the species
-
Include common and scientific names of the organism, the area you and this species live (country, state, city, etc.), the area’s biome classification, etc.
2.
Life cycle of the species
-
Describe the life cycle of the organism you have chosen. The life cycle of an organism refers to the series of changes in both development and growth from its beginnings as an independent life form up until maturity, when it is able to reproduce. Organisms like bacteria have relatively simple life cycles; however other organisms (e.g., plants) have very complex stages to their life cycle.
3.
Structure and Function
-
Describe the structure and function of at least one major organ system of the species (e.g., digestive system, reproductive system). Choose one system and explain how this organism’s system is structured anatomically and physiologically. Identify any species-specific characteristics or adaptations that are particularly unique to this organism and explain why.
4.
Evolution of the organism
-
Evolution is simply heritable change over time. Sometimes changes from one generation to the next can give individuals an advantage. Specifically a trait that increases reproductive success or survival ability could be advantageous. Include a section in your profile paper about your organism’s evolution. Here are possible ways to research the topic:
a.
Conduct a review of scientific literature to understand what is known about your organism’s past evolution. Search key words may include evolution, fossil, ancestor. Often technical reports from wildlife and
conservation agencies have
descriptions of an organism’s evolution.
b.
Summarize research on any adaptive traits. Search key words include adaptation, evolution, trait, and character.
c.
Find an article on the family tree or phylogeny of your organism. Summarize the information describing related species. Search key words might include phylogeny, phylogenetic, and genetic analysis
.
d.
Use the
Tree of Life Project
to describe the phylogeny of your organism. Start at species, if possible, and trace back to the root. In addition to your summary, include any interesting patterns or unknown data.

Adopt-a-Plant Project guidelines
Overview:
The purpose of this project is for you to choose a plant, conduct online research into the biology of the plant, and communicate what you have learned. You will be preparing an annotated bibliography on the plant you choose. The entire project is worth 50 points
Annotated Bibliography (50 points)
You will prepare an annotated bibliography with a list of the top 10 most interesting facts about your plant.
· Each fact should be paraphrased (i.e. written in your own words, no quotations allowed).
· Then tell me why this is interesting to you – make connections to your life or to currents issues in our world.
· Finally, give a full citation and tell me why you think this is a reliable, trustworthy source. Use this libguide to help you come up with reasons why your source is trustworthy.
· At least one of your sources should be from a peer-reviewed, science journal article.
Here is an example:
Fact 1: Taxol is a chemotherapy agent derived from the bark of the Pacific Yew Tree. The chemical itself is derived from a fungal endophtye within the bark. I thought this was very interesting, because the Pacific Yew tree is native to the state of Washington, and my aunt Jane received Taxol while undergoing chemotherapy for ovarian cancer. I also thought it was interesting because of the mutualistic relationship between the plant and the fungus.Citation: Plant natural products from cultured multipotent cells
Roberts, Susan; Kolewe, Martin. Nature Biotechnology28.11 (Nov 2010): 1175-6.
This is a reliable source because it is published in a peer-reviewed science journal article, written by two PhDs that are providing a review of the current literature on the topic
To complete the assignment, you should first choose a plant, gather articles discussing your plant, read the articles sufficiently enough to discuss the plant, and finally write the annotated bibliography. You are expected to produce original work, and any plagiarism will receive a zero. The paper should be double-spaced, and typed in 12 point font size, with normal margins. The instructions for how to properly cite your sources are at the end of this handout.
*** Reminder: The scientific name of a plant should always be typed in italics, with the first letter of the Genus capitalized. For ex.: Digitalis lanata. When you search for information on your plant online, make sure to use the scientific name, which will bring back a wider variety of results
The bibliography is worth 50 points and will be graded on:
1. Effort
• Quality of references
•Depth/breadth/quality of material covered
2. Following directions/ requirements
I will use the following rubric to grade your bibliography:
Research, Critical Reading and Documentation
Balanced, authoritative sources; correctly cited sources; effectively integrated outside sources. Most sources from science journals
10 pts
Effective sources, correctly cited, Could have a few more.

CELB20020 Library Workshop 26 Jan 2011
This document provides an overview of how to effectively conduct research by finding and citing credible information sources. It discusses plagiarism and how to avoid it by properly citing sources. The key steps in research are defined as: defining your topic, refining your search terms, determining appropriate sources like books, journals, databases and websites, searching those sources, and evaluating the information found. It emphasizes evaluating sources for credibility and cautions about relying solely on internet sources. Specific databases and the library catalog are demonstrated as good places to start the search process.
The Dynamic Earth Research Paper Assignment This is to be a resear.docx
The Dynamic Earth Research Paper Assignment
This is to be a research-based paper in which you explore a specific aspect of an Earth science topic in more detail than is covered in the class. You are to find out what the experts think about the topic and report on the rationale for their understanding, that is, upon what experimental and observational evidence and logic do they base their conclusions.
You can choose any topic of interest to you that is related to the Earth science topics that we covered in class. However make sure that it is specific enough that you can cover it well in the paper. This should not be a general overview paper. Some sample topics are listed at the end, but you are not limited to these topics.
Your thesis in the paper should be supported by facts obtained from research. A minimum of four sources must be used. They should include at least one book other than the textbook or other reference book (either in print or in electronic format from the library database) or an article from peer-reviewed academic journals. Web-based materials should come from credible sources. University-related and government agency websites generally have credible scientific information, while personal and business-related sites should be treated with healthy skepticism. Although you may not find books that directly addresses the issue about which you are writing, you may find one that addresses necessary background or general supporting information about your topic. Reference material (e.g. encyclopedias, dictionaries, your textbook) do not count toward your four references, although you are welcome to use them.
You should credit your sources whenever you quote from or paraphrase a source. Additionally, you should always cite your source for any statements made in the essay that are not general knowledge (because you presumably obtained them from one of your sources). For instance if you state that 98 percent of all the fish in the ocean are green, you will want to cite your source.
A bibliography page, or works cited page, should be located on a separate page immediately following the body of your essay. It should contain the list of works used listed alphabetically by last name of lead author. Although I will not be extremely picky about the formatting of the works cited page, I do expect all the information needed to locate each source, and I expect it to roughly follow
the standard formatting used in composition classes. Be sure to include the date of access for URL’s.
The paper should be 5-8 pages long, typewritten, double spaced, and written in a standard (and legible) font (12 point Times New Roman for example). It is to be submitted electronically via Isidore, where it will be checked by Turnitin.com. The paper is due by the end of the last day of class (12/9/2016).
Sample topics:
1. Select a recent natural disaster, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, flood, and
hurricanes, provide a detailed geological/hydrological.
Week 12 102

Reliable sources from universities, government websites, and journals must be cited using APA format.
Evolution Writing AssignmentOne of the topics in the news is a.docx
Evolution Writing Assignment
One of the topics in the news is about whether creation science should be taught in schools along with evolution or that evolution should be taught as “just a theory”. We have touched on evolution in a number of chapters so far this spring and through some of your reading assignments and you should now understand what a scientific theory is and that it is not "just a guess". Evolution is often presented as a belief system that also relies on faith even though over 150 years of scientific research has shown that evolution is an extremely robust explanation of life. The fact that there is still so much misinformation about evolution indicates that the subject is not settled and may not be for quite a while.
There appears to be a gap in support for evolution within the United States. Based on an article published in Newsweek, 99.86% of Earth and Life Scientists supported evolution as the primary force explaining life on earth today versus only 40% of the general public [Larry Martz and Ann McDaniel, "Keeping God Out of Class (Washington and bureau reports)". A 2009 Pew Research poll showed that, 97% of scientists accepted that humans evolved in some fashion, while 31% of the general public thought humans have existed in their present form since the beginning of time (http://www.pewforum.org/2009/11/05/public-opinion-on-religion-and-science-in-the-united-states/). In another poll by Public Religion Research Institute (RNS Religion News Survey, September 14–18, 2011, N=1,013) 57% of respondents said that "Humans and other living things have evolved over time" came closest to their view, while 38% preferred "Humans and other living things have existed in their present form since creation." In the same poll, when people were asked "do scientists generally agree that humans evolved over time, are scientists divided, or do scientists generally disagree that humans evolved over time," 51% of respondents said that scientists agree, 26% said that scientists were divided, 15% said that scientists disagreed, and 9% said that they didn't know or refused to answer the question.
Based on the polls, there is a perception within the public that scientists are divided about evolution even though over 99% of Earth and life scientists support evolution as a fact. People accept gravitational theory, quantum theory, and cell theory as fact, but when it comes to this one area of biology, suddenly they question the idea and the scientists. As a citizen scientist, you need accurate information to make accurate conclusions. As Charles Darwin himself stated, “a fair result can be obtained only by fully stating and balancing the facts and arguments on both sides of each question.” With that in mind, here is your assignment.
Assignment: Your assignment will be to write a 700 word paper explaining the scientific basis of evolution and why people have trouble accepting evolution. This will be a 3 part paper that will include a paragraph th ...

Organism Profile
Assignment Instructions
:
You will write an organism profile based on literature researched about your chosen organism.
Research should come from scientific information on the internet and research articles at the APUS library. Your paper should include, but not be limited to, the following topics:
1.
Introduction/background information about the species
-
Include common and scientific names of the organism, the area you and this species live (country, state, city, etc.), the area’s biome classification, etc.
2.
Life cycle of the species
-
Describe the life cycle of the organism you have chosen. The life cycle of an organism refers to the series of changes in both development and growth from its beginnings as an independent life form up until maturity, when it is able to reproduce. Organisms like bacteria have relatively simple life cycles; however other organisms (e.g., plants) have very complex stages to their life cycle.
3.
Structure and Function
-
Describe the structure and function of at least one major organ system of the species (e.g., digestive system, reproductive system). Choose one system and explain how this organism’s system is structured anatomically and physiologically. Identify any species-specific characteristics or adaptations that are particularly unique to this organism and explain why.
4.
Evolution of the organism
-
Evolution is simply heritable change over time. Sometimes changes from one generation to the next can give individuals an advantage. Specifically a trait that increases reproductive success or survival ability could be advantageous. Include a section in your profile paper about your organism’s evolution. Here are possible ways to research the topic:
a.
Conduct a review of scientific literature to understand what is known about your organism’s past evolution. Search key words may include evolution, fossil, ancestor. Often technical reports from wildlife and
conservation agencies have
descriptions of an organism’s evolution.
b.
Summarize research on any adaptive traits. Search key words include adaptation, evolution, trait, and character.
c.
Find an article on the family tree or phylogeny of your organism. Summarize the information describing related species. Search key words might include phylogeny, phylogenetic, and genetic analysis
.
d.
Use the
Tree of Life Project
to describe the phylogeny of your organism. Start at species, if possible, and trace back to the root. In addition to your summary, include any interesting patterns or unknown data.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
